Fast-growing discount grocery store ALDI has more than 2,000 stores in 37 states in the U.S. and is on track to become the third-largest supermarket chain by the end of 2022. In addition to prices that can be 50% lower than other grocery stores, you may be surprised to learn that ALDI boasts a variety of healthy food items, including fresh, frozen, and canned fruits and vegetables.

I’m not sure what I did before ALDI came to town. I do most of my weekly grocery shopping there, including almost all of my fruit and vegetable purchases. For my family of three, I pack a salad for my husband’s lunch during the week, I make salads for my lunch and we make healthy meals almost every night. That means I buy a lot of fruits and vegetables! Whether you’re looking for vegan and vegetarian ALDI options, or just interested in the healthiest foods available, ALDI has a lot to offer.

ALDI Shopping Tips

While shopping at ALDI is unlike a traditional supermarket shopping experience, it’s worth it to me to save a large chunk of money, about 30-40% off my grocery bill. Here are some ALDI shopping tips that will make your experience smoother:

Bring a quarter and reusable shopping bags. You’ll need a quarter for the shopping cart, and your own shopping bags, because you’re not given any (if you forget them, you can buy bags). After shopping, you can return the cart and get your quarter back, or give your cart to someone else, or leave it for someone else to get, to spread some good karma (or because you’re too lazy to bring it back, like me!
Shop in the morning. I usually go on Saturday mornings, and almost all of the items, especially the fresh produce, are available then. Note: don’t go too early, though. Most days (including weekends), they open at 9 a.m.
Ask an employee about out of stock items. ALDI stocks products throughout the day. One Saturday morning there must have been an early morning rush on broccoli, because there was none to be found. I flagged down an employee and asked if there was more broccoli in the back. Sure enough, there was—it just hadn’t been unloaded yet.
